Good move, or foolish newbie play?

Here is the reason for my re-raise.

1. His bet on the flop relative to the pot
2. I sensed weakness
3. His preflop play
4. The texture of the flop

It all tied together to make me come to the conclusion that he had nothing, and that my raise would be big enough to make him fold any non-paired hand.

Do you still think it is wrong?

Thanks!

It all just depends but I would never pull this. Donks will call with two overs here and a pair should call here.

FPS is fancy player syndrome. This is a pretty fancy play and for it to work you have to have a thinking opponent (who will fold his overs). I think this is partially buyin level dependant, the lower the level the worse this is. With a solid read against thinking player that likes to fold they will probably lay down overs. Any PP is calling here I think though.

Another reason I dont like this play is because you have a very healty stack related to the blinds and other people at the table.

Ok I will take your advice. Bad play for the long run.

But for this particular hand, I felt strongly that I could pull it off. I was plannig on checking just to see what he would bet and play it from there. Instinct took over and it was just an auto all in. Really my cards dont matter. I have 2 overcards with no draw, but I would have done the same with 2 under cards no draw.

I just hate folding to the chumps who bet not even 1/3 of the pot on a weird board. It's got to be a lousy attempt to steal right? I am thinking any pair would push with a pot that size (Except for maybe KK AA).

Come on man, online, low limits, we can't sense anything. I sometimes sense myself pulling a stupid bluff and do it anyway but that's different I guess.
